Paving the way for the national energy transition

28.07.2023
EMDEN/OLDENBURG/STADE. In collaboration with NPorts, the Lower Saxony seaports working group commissioned a study that examines port compliance in terms of wind energy expansion, so that these ports can help make the German energy transition as successful as possible in the coming years. The study will be presented at the National Maritime Conference, which will be held in Bremen in early September, and be incorporated into the federal government’s national port strategy. Michael de Reese, spokesperson for the Lower Saxony seaports working group, (right) and Dr Dennis Kruse, Managing Director of Deutsche WindGuard, which was commissioned with the study, (left) have already presented the initial results of the analysis at “transport logistic” in Munich. “The Lower Saxony seaports are ready,” stated Michael de Reese. “The space potential is there. If we have any hope of reaching the wind energy expansion aims by 2030, the political investment decisions will need to be made now, so that transhipment space can be developed over the short term.”
